I never seal my art with a varnish or sealer to "protect" it.To me a sealer means the image is done and permanent.I believe art is meant to flow and change while it interacts with the environment surrounding it.By this I mean subtle interaction of the air and energy not taking ones fingers and manipulating the image.My art is not meant to sit on top of the canvas, it is meant to intertwine with the fabric of the canvas and vibrate as one with it.For this reason the power of the painting is much more intense when seen in person than to see a photographic image of it, a photographic image also seals the image as done.But to view the painting in person is to view the art actually flowing into the room.The art is alive.

Prognostication

The beautiful smear of exquisite color raked over a crisp white canvas, is well quite like heaven to me.

Value is inherent in the art, it is the artist that blocks it from being sold, that's why people buy art after the artist has died and not before, the artist is no longer there to block the sale with feelings of low self worth.

There are two parts to reading a psychic painting.One is color and one is formForm is defined by lines. Form takes two sides, one is negative form or space, the other is positive form.Since color however is something that absolutely enthralls me, I will take on the color aspect first.Here is a list of what color means to me.

Now keep in mind these are what the colors mean in my paintings, other paintings may use color in a different way.

Certain tints of color can be read as offshoots, such as a tint of green can mean growing jealousy.

As to shapes any shape that is a definite animal, possesses the metaphysical properties of that animal, such as a rabbit-fecundity, fox-cunning, and an owl wise, and so on.When you read the painting you couple the meaning of the color along with the metaphysical properties of the animal or physical object and you can determine what the painting is trying to tell you.It is the same as interpreting a dream, when there is no verbal language to describe, everything is communicated through symbology.Thus our purple cows or red owls which may not exist in the physical are very appropriate in a metaphorical world.Also as in dreams another thing that must be taken into account is tone of the painting, is it happy sad, vibrant or depressing.What is the expression on the characters faces, are they perplexed, sad, happy.

Now some examples:

Hugs Are The Most Precious Gift We Can Give

SymbolsDog - Unconditional LoveGorilla - Gorillas are vastly sociable, and have intricate methods of
communication with each other. Furthermore, there is a great deal of honor involved with their interactions with each other.
LINKColor AnalysisBlue Background indicates tranquilityRed (Gorilla) indicates powerGray (Dog) indicates serenityDog symbolizes unconditional love. Orange above dogs head indicates vitality real feeling imparts to a gesture (in this case the hug)

The
fact that the hand hugging the gorilla is the same color as the gorilla
indicates self-hugs or self-love are the most important thing of all.If you cannot love and comfort yourself you are unable to love and comfort any others. Other things to ponder - The hand is in the shape of an m.There is another animal on top of the painting that looks like a racoon to me. Since it is the same color as the head of the dog the two metaphysical aspects of both dog and other animal are taken to merge.

Always keep in mind any painting you are particularly drawn to has a special message that you soul is asking an answer to, your soul is confirming you have made a correct decision about or is telling a story that resonates deeply with your being.

The main object in the painting is a man with orange hair laying prostate with his eyes closed.

Hmmmm.

Above him we see an alligator with wide open mouth and a man for his eye seeming to control his bite.

In the very center of the painting we see the back of a man with blue hair and a wave of pink underneath him.

Again hmmm.

The far right hand corner we see another man with embarrassed red checks seeming to want to flee the scene as quickly as possible.

His nose is purple as in enlightened knowledge, his head is green as in growth and I see him as a contrite supporter that has dun seen the light, and wants to distance himself from what he has done.

In the top left corner we see a huge rat with a yellow eye looking down on the man in what? Sorrow, apathy?

We see the Lilliputians bottom left, the colored crowd with their coloring signaling greater stature, the ones with a little more power to take him down.

The Lilliputians beside them the laborers, the worker ants working ceaselessly but in anonymity with only vague outline to their shapes signaling this.

Above the prostate head we see the town crier calling out the words the world has been waiting to hear, with an oversized hashtag of a plaid shirt, and beside him the Lilliputian spiritual workers working with the mind and other realms on the take down.

Finally in the upper left hand corner we see the ghost of William Shakespeare looking down at the scene in wonderment of a story even more fanciful than his own fiction.

There is much much more in the painting but I grow weary and will leave the rest of it for you to unravel.

As my painting are psychic snapshots of what is going on in my world and "the world", these paintings are especially fascinating to me at this critical juncture of the path America will take hinging on the current election coming up.

These are small paintings I completed yesterday.

I am a metaphysical painter who has studied spirituality for much of my life.

By metaphysical I mean seeing and knowing things beyond the reach of our ordinary senses.

My method of painting comes from my fascination with psychic phenomena and the future.

I have always since early childhood felt the future will unveil not only fantastic new technologies but also undreamed of spiritual awakenings.

I believe that thought is subtle electrical energy and that energy from the resultant thought can actually travel from the subconscious where it is picked up as prescience to a blank canvas.

This creates scenes that are either;

Important for me to capture. Important for the eventual buyer of the piece to capture. Important to the world to capture.

Encapsulated, my painting are drawn from inner scenes existing as vibrational energy in my subconscious and are not drawn on the canvas, but actually pulled from the canvas.I call my art, "Art Purely From the Soul With No Filter ."

It's
genre is soft abstract expressionism art, but it is the way that it is
created that makes it much more unique than it's actual genre.

Faced
with a blank canvas I do not plan what to paint, I merely swipe paint
on the canvas and let whatever picture wants to come up, come up.I then read the canvas by rotating it 4 ways and seeing what picture has come up.Once
I see the picture I enhance by still only swiping paint and oil pastels
with no intent other than to add more color and more shape.I have never been disappointed, a clearly readable image ALWAYS appears.It is very akin to reading tea leaves I suppose. I rarely use a paint brush.

My
subconscious sees the invisible energy of a scene, impregnates the
canvas with this invisible energy and when I wipe paint on the canvas it
adheres only to the energy of the impregnated scene creating a
picture.

It is energy from my subconscious that creates the picture and this is why I say it comes straight from the soul.

When I say no filter I mean I do not filter or change any images that come up.

It is also for this reason that the paint on all my canvas is very lightly applied.

This is so it does not cover up, but actually uncovers the painting theme.What my art means.My
art is about a move to a gentler more peaceful society which is
portrayed by gently flowing cartoon like shapes and beautiful bright
flowing color.

My work is always about the good in man and in society and it's meaning is always upbeat and positive.

Nothing dark always brilliant light and softness.

By
putting out such light in my art I believe I am contributing to peace
and happiness, for who can be dark or sad when viewing such brightly
colored gentle creatures.

Sisters 3 Feet by 4 Feet

As the subconscious is ones soul I am delighted that my soul appears to be a happy one as my art comes out in playful happy cartoonish like characters and beautiful colors.

The Queen 3 Feet by 4 Feet

Gratitude towards the courage of individual spirit is the main theme that runs through most of my painting and a knowing that we are moving slowly and steadily towards a kinder and more gentle society and world

I believe that good energy embedded in a picture is good energy added to a household.

I believe the most important character a person can possess, is kindness.

USA and The Final Curtain For The Infamous Orange Man/The World is Woke 36" by 48"

This painting is metaphysical art, as all my painting are. This means they are painted without intent to subject, and an image simply appears as I am working the canvas. This particular painting was completed days after the election in November 2016You can see this painting brought up an American Eagle with wings wrapped protectively around the globe. One of the wings depicted as a fierce animal. I believe the golf club the eagle is looking at is President Obama and the orange dust the infamous orange man Donald trump. Hopefully this means President Obama saves our country from Donald.As We The People rise, we will defeat the orange man and reclaim our beautiful democracy and countryThe golf club is placed inside a Lemurian Seed.* The lightness around the orange dust being the breakup of the intense negativity of this oppressive regime.The original date on this blog post was June 9, 2017.I am re-posting it today because of the tremendously inspiring speech given today by President Obama which I think will actually become a focal fighting point for our democracy and turn it back into, well, our democracy.

Lemurian Seed Background -The impressions that many get of the people of Lemuria, is of gentle innocent people who deeply loved the earth. It is believed that those who lived during the time of ancient Lemuria were highly spiritual beings. These crystals are important as it is believed that they left messages within the stones for us. These stones seem to have been programmed before they were placed into the ground.http://www.healing-crystals-for-you.com/lemurian-quartz-crystal.

My paintings are giant puzzles and each and every piece of them has a meaning.The colors I use, shape, form, positive space of the lines and the negative space between the lines, the use of canvas space and the non-use of canvas space, clashing colors and harmonious colors, uneven lines, shaky lines,the size of the characters, the metaphysical meaning of the characters. everything tells a piece of the puzzle.

Thought is about the creation of all there is through the concentrated focus of mind. The more thought concentrated, the faster the creation. In this way beautiful flowers emerge as we see the creation energy focusing the color blue in the flower before the man in profile. You can see his electrical thought energy rooting down into the substrate below him. If you look at the mans head you will also see the outlines of buildings in a future city the man is creating through his thought. Out of all of my paintings this is my favorite, also the colors are exquisite in it. Colors - Lime Green, cream, dark brown , linen tan and cerrulean blue.

Alien Child As a Small Creator 36" by 48" $2,000,000

This is painting of an alien child creator with his adoring Mama looking at her creative baby. The child is growing a garden of toys with his playful energy. The painting is very busy as in his excitement new toys keep occuring to him one after the other. The painting also has a somewhat unfinished appearance as in all mind creation, creation is never complete but is constantly in flux.This is a painting that does not photography well. In real life the alien child just glows with a luminous brilliance

This is by far one on my favorite paintings. Look at the big figure standing in profile, the expression on his face is just spot on, a mixture of anger, resentment and it's not fair captured with just a few lines of paint. The fish signifying his brain also is a mirror duplicate of this same expression and totally captivating. Beautiful expression also on his brothers face who is an orange lion talking with his mother who is in profile with her hair in a bun. All the work mental work as in real life goes on the head.

Circus is about the jadinedness of forced revelry.The circus has come to town.

In the bottom left hand corner you will a little girl with pigtails dreaming of the circus tent which stands over her head. In the very center you see an adoring Jack in the Box staring up at the clown. And last but not least in the upper right hand corner you will see that the clowns red hair is actually a koi fish representing personal strength in overcoming adversity.This is one painting of mine that does not photograph well as the beauty of the painting are the subtleties of the colors which do not come up well in a photograph

Heart is about the encapsulation of the dynamics within the individual family unit. Every family has a heart to it and all family members revolve around the heart.This family and painting starts from the heart usually the mother showing the cycles of life. Starting in the bottom left hand corner we see the energizer bunny of youth. Next going to the upper left in a clockwise fashion we see the mountain of sagacity of middle age. And finally in the upper right hand corner still going clockwise we see the tremulous stage of very old age

36" BY 48" $2,000,000

Please Don't Leave Your Head Behind, Take it With You 36" by 48" $2,000,000

Don't leave your head is about the fact that although we might dance through our lives in complete ignorance of our true spiritual nature, as mind creates reality only through our thoughts we cannot leave our head behind it is forever and irrevocably attached to our reality.This is truly an illusionistic painting. By this I mean the image in the painting changes whenever the viewer changes their distance from the canvas or the angle they are viewing the painting from, even the height on the wall they view the painting at. The basic painting is a man' s head separated from his torso in his hurry in life to get where he is going. The head is tethered to the body with a fine string and encased in a balloon. The head can be seen as a chipmunk head, a sugar glider head (viewed forward), or of a Frenchman with a beret on or a Arabic man wearing a Keffiyeh (viewed backward) The body can be seen as running with a tray, or from a different viewing perspective, as dancing. From another perspective you can also see the body turn into a dancing Tasmanian Devil. Taz When the size of the picture is shrunk small the leaf in the right top becomes 3D. The symbol Om can be seen clearly in the head Truly a very cool painting, if I do say so myself. And I do,smile

Bird the Taker Of All To Our Spiritual Resting Place Or The Final Flight.. 36" by 48" $2,000,000

This painting is about the spiritual voyage we all take upon upon passing and the beautiful trip to the spiritual plane.Bird is the taker of all to our spiritual resting place,so even as we rest unaware of what awaits us, no one leaves this place alive. If you look at the top of the picture right above the bird's eye you will see a man's face all in red. The man is on his voyage to the spiritual resting place. The blue frame below the bird is the portal to the next dimension.

Truth The Physical Embodiment of Divine Reality 36" by 48" $2,000,000

Truth is the physical embodiment of absolute divinity.The Truth spoken of is eternal truth and love is the only absolute truth.If you look closely at the center of this painting you will see a horse. It was not until years after I completed this painting that I noticed it myself. The metaphysical meaning of horse is freedom and freedom is what you receive upon knowing Truth. Always circular, what you receive you know and what you know you receive.

Creation Two / Rarefied Ascension 36" by 48" $2,000,000

The true beauty of this painting is the subtleness of the play of the beautiful colors on the white canvas. Unfortunately that does not show up well in a photograph. This is an extremley soothing painting to view.

The Lamb in The Tree Overlooking The Reflection Pool and His Friend Bubbles The Cat

What is a little hard to see in a photograph of this painting, is very easy to see in real life viewing. The apricot of the painting is filled with morphing figures. Look at top of reflecting pool to see women's head in profile. A large wolf is very obvious that morphs into a man or alien looking downward. It is quite cool, and the color of apricot is absolutely exquiste. When you do things from your soul, you feel a river moving in you, a joy. - Rumi

He Thinks He's a Manatee She Thinks He's a Hunk 36" by 48" $2,000,000

Everytime I look at this painting it makes me smile.Look for the pretty lady in purple at the top left of the painting with her hand on her hip looking at the manatee with a purple eye swimming on blue water. While the man sees himself as overweight or undesirable the woman sees only his hunkiness as we see perspective can give very incongruous readings. Why do you walk when you have wings-Rumi

Cross 36" by 48" $2,000,000

Cross is about the morphing of reality brought about by observation and attention.My favorite part of the painting is the cross morphing into the angelfish .By my count I can find 11 faces and creatures in this painting.We also see two faces watching the metamophisis. One a man and one an alien who is blowing the 3 circles of creation that start the morphing. Always always gentle creatures as we progess to kinder gentler society.

Independence For Billy Boy 24" by 36" NA

Independence always requires incredible strength, and is usually never achieved unless the pursuer of it is able to tap into it. If you look at the bottom right of the picture you will see ships setting off artillery fire which can be seen as transparent blue streams of light in the night. Blue because although some freedom battles must be fought it is still with bue sadness that some death is invariably resultant.If you look at the right hand side of the painting you will see the ghost a US Navy Sailor with a distinctive WW2 Sailor's Cracker Jack Tally Pancake Flat Hat Cap looking down on the ships from the sky.

Ghost Ship 24" by 36" $1,000,000

Ghost Ship is a painting representing the legend of pirate ghost ships forever cruising eternal oceans in search of unfound treasure. The ghostliness of the ship can be seen as the pilings from a pier are clearly visible through the ship, and you can see the searching eye very clearly as it casts itself forever looking at bottomless ocean

Church 18" by 24" $250,000

Church is a satirical look at organized religion that deems everyone elses view of the spiritual as wrong, and rigidly declares only their religion is true and those that have other beliefs are doomed to eternal hell. This is a bad picture of a bad picture with it's heavy clashing colors in a heavy gilt (guilt) frame. The frame is cropped out of the painting here.

The photo of this painting does not do justice to the actual exquisite colors in it of deep emerald green and velvet brown suede.

911 A Hail to Heros A No to Savage Behavior 16" by 20" $125,000

This picture was painted one full year before 911 but brings up the day perfectly.It is a perfect example of prescience. Although some of it is very sad, like the blood you can see pooled on the ground, it is to honor our brave protectors, the firemen and policemen which are depicted by strong trees, one leading the way and the other having our backs. The twin towers are easy to see and if you look at the top of them you will see the explosion when the airplane hit. You will see God depicted by a smiley face with his smile wiped off looking down on the scene. What is lost here in this picture because it was cropped but is in the origina painting is the devil in the upper left hand portion of the painting standing with his trident, you can see half of him here all of him in the uncropped painting.

This is a portrait of my beloved cat Moo Moo who trepidatious character stems back to his early birth on the street.. A brave little guy who every day faces down his fears and shows how incredibly resilient character is.

Rock Star 16" by 20" NA

If you look closely at this painting you will see a solo man or woman on stage singing into an upraised microphone. You can also see the stage curtains pulling apart and the pinpoint spots of light comming thru the curtain with a huge explosion of applause over the singer head. This painting is dedicated to my own rock star, my son Alex Mitro, whose musical talent knows no bounds.

Fallingwater a Tribute to Frank Lloyd Wright 11" by 14'" NA

Looking at the painting "Fallingwater a Tribute to Frank Lloyd Wright" side by side with a photograph of the actual Fallingwater, we can see the remarkable similarity even though the first painting was painted as a complete abstract. We also see the same color scheme and same falling water :). Living in Pennsylvania for almost my entire life I guess it was only natural for me to pick up something I have heard referred to as architectural genius all my life, and also something so very beautiful! Beautiful muse, beautiful painting.

Dream 11" by 14" $50,000

To sleep is to dream, to dream is to gain. Our dreams show us where we are headed and what we can do to reach our goals, or actions we can take to change the course of our lives. Dreams are one of the most valuable things we own. If you look at the bottom right hand corner of the painting you will see the dreamer with his one eye closed in sleep as he dreams. Above his head you will see his dreams of puppy dogs and Hershey Kiss Men played out.

Two Bunny Rabbits on a Amusement Park Ride 11" by 14" $50,000

If you look at the right side of the painting you will see two bunny rabbits, one large and one small. The large bunny has a black eye, the small bunny has a brown eye and two tiny upturned brown feet. They are sitting in some sort of car and since they appear to be enjoying themselves I am going to say it is an amusement park ride.

Possum 11" by 14" $50,000

Looking at my new painting Possum for the last couple of nights and I see that it comes alive at night. Now it is pretty viewed in daylight, but at night it glows like jewel with an inner radiance that compels the eye to it like a magnet. My painting are abstract and the feeling of the painting is what the painting is about, and even though I have never seen a possum in person,the painting was just, a possum. When I awaken this morning it dawns on (get it dawns on me) I think aren't possums nocturnal animals? I Google it and yes indeed they are nocturnal animals. So once again I am amazed things, are much curiouser in this earthy life than most of us realize. When the painting feels to be a possum and that painting comes alive at night just like a possum, well that is too cool for words.

It is the confusion of paths that may or may not be taken in life, and the tremendous angst one feels before embarking on a new path by agonizing over which is the correct path to take. One must embark into newness joyfully and without trepidation instead of being drawn into muddy colored pathways to reach desired financial security. It is and always has been, the joy of the journey for when you enjoy the journey it will always invariably have a great end. By the way the path that feels good to your heart is always the correct one. Feels good, is good.

Although woman are usually portrayed as the weaker sex the strong backbone of the female shown her indicates that is certainly not the case.

You will see the male portrayed as a prickly porcupine which attest to man's often stand off nature of all things he perceives as weakness in caring. Notice women the male is standing on the females back so even though it might not seem it at times , he really does have the females back :)

Jesus Preaches While Kittens Reign Down16" by 20" $125,000

Jesus preaches is about turning the light on to banish the darkness or soul staining of self flagellation and by doing so being able to evolve spiritually to the next level.If you look at the bottom right hand side of the painting you will see Jesus with his back turned to the viewer with arm outstretched and long aqua colored hair with a white swirl on the back of his robe, preaching to a red man on the the left. The white swirl I take to be the holy spirit. Above in the sky you will see kittens reigning down from the sky. In the hem of Jesus's robe you will see a tiny perfectly formed cat sitting in the grass. If you look at the red man you will also see an eye underneath his arm. If you look closely at the painting there are many more to see. It is a very complex image.
